VocalSynth 2
VocalSynth 2 is a vocal synthesis and processing plugin from iZotope, available in VST3, VST2, AU, and AAX formats. It combines five blendable vocal processing modules—Vocoder, Compuvox, Polyvox, Talkbox, and Biovox—with seven stompbox-style effects (Distort, Filter, Transform, Shred, Delay, Ring Mod, Chorus) to create, manipulate and enhance vocal recordings. The plugin features pitch correction, harmony generation, interactive spectral visualization, and inter-plugin communication with other iZotope products. It is used by music producers, engineers, and sound designers working across genres including pop, hip-hop, rock, and electronic music.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionVocalSynth 2 has shipped with native Apple Silicon support since version 2.5.0 (released April 2022), so a native build is available. However, because this is a plugin component rather than a standalone application, you do not update it through the App Store or a generic vendor download. Instead, update through iZotope's official installer or through Native Access (the update manager from Native Instruments USA, iZotope's current parent company). Open Native Access on your Mac, locate VocalSynth 2 in your library, and install or update to the latest version—it will serve the native Apple Silicon build automatically if you are running an M-series Mac. If you do not use Native Access, download the latest VocalSynth 2 installer directly from the iZotope website and run it; the installer detects your Mac's architecture and installs the appropriate build. The plugin will then work natively within your DAW (Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Cubase, etc.) without relying on Rosetta 2 emulation.
